This is my submission for ROOKIEPAINTER. These little ceramic birds were fun to paint and a challenge for me. Check out this blog. You might enjoy this challenge, too.

Well, last week I had MANY learning experiences! I lost count on how many times I wiped out my paintings. And they are learning experiences, although sometimes I wonder what I am learning. Maybe patience? Determination? Drawing skills? Color mixing? I think it was a number of things. One thought that continued throughout the week was how much I love to paint. Even when I don't produce a painting that I like I just love the process. :-)

These tulips are a submission to the rookiepainter challenge. It was fun and I painted on a canvas panel, which was different for me. If you are interested in challenges, this one is fun.

I am lifting my diet Coke and "Here's to everyone having a great week with few wipe outs!!!"
